Abstract

Plasmodium knowlesi is one of the most common causes of Malaria in humans. Although several reported cases of dengue and Malaria occur together, only a few cases have been reported in Southeast Asia, including Indonesia. This study aims to provide additional insight into the epidemiology and clinical aspects of Plasmodium knowlesi (P. knowlesi) malaria infection and dengue fever that occur concurrently in Southeast Asia, particularly Indonesia. A 36-year-old male patient with a history of travel to the mountainous area of Lhoknga and a fever for five days sought treatment at the emergency department of Meuraxa Hospital. During 11 days of treatment, the patient underwent a routine haematology examination every 24 hours. The average platelet count during the first eight days was around 50,000, with an increase after anti-malarial treatment on the eighth day and marked clinical improvement. The patient was discharged on day 10 with no signs of bleeding or hemolysis during treatment. Diagnosis involved blood smears and hematologic examination, confirming dengue fever with P. knowlesi malaria infection. These findings emphasize the importance of thorough history taking, physical examination, and supporting investigations to diagnose these two conditions together. The results of this study may provide critical support for case management involving malaria infection and dengue fever, with a focus on platelet monitoring as an indicator of response to treatment in the Southeast Asian region.

Abstract

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide. This study aims to investigate and analyze the relationship between the level of physical activity and the occurrence of breast cancer at Dr. Soetomo Hospital Surabaya. The research method employed in this study is correlation analysis. The sample population was obtained from the Cancer Service Development Center (PPLK) at Dr. Soetomo Hospital Surabaya. The results of this study indicate that the majority of the 53 research subjects suffering from breast cancer had low-intensity physical activity since childhood to adolescence, with 41.5% of the total subjects (22 patients). In contrast, only 24.5% (13 patients) and 34% (18 patients) had moderate and high-intensity physical activity, respectively. Statistical analysis using Microsoft Excel version 2019 and SPSS showed that the calculated Chi-square value was greater than the tabulated Chi-square value, thus rejecting the null hypothesis (H0). This indicates a significant relationship between the intensity of physical activity during childhood to adolescence and the occurrence of breast cancer in the research subjects. This study implicates the importance of awareness regarding the significance of physical activity in maintaining breast health, especially from a young age. The practical implication of this research is the necessity of a preventive approach to breast cancer involving the promotion of a healthy lifestyle and regular physical activity, particularly during childhood and adolescence.

Abstract

Penile cancer is a rare malignancy globally, including in Indonesia, with notable morbidity and mortality rates. This case report discusses a 62-year-old male with a penile mass, emphasizing the diagnostic challenges and the importance of early intervention in penile cancer cases. The patient presented with a progressively growing penile mass, dysuria, and penile pain. Clinical examination revealed a palpable, reddish mass on the penile shaft with unclear borders, a urethral fistula, and enlarged inguinal lymph nodes. Laboratory results showed white blood cell count, haemoglobin, platelet count, glucose, blood urea nitrogen, and creatinine abnormalities. An open biopsy suggested verrucous carcinoma, later revised to penile squamous cell carcinoma with inguinal lymph node metastases. Penile cancer, particularly squamous cell carcinoma, primarily affects older, uncircumcised men. Verrucous carcinoma, though rare, is associated with poor hygiene and lack of circumcision. Notably, misdiagnoses may occur due to the limited scope of open biopsies. Penile cancer is preventable, and its significant risk factors are modifiable. Penile carcinoma, although uncommon, poses severe consequences for affected individuals. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for improved outcomes. This case highlights the challenges in diagnosis, emphasizing the need for comprehensive assessments and awareness of the modifiable risk factors associated with penile cancer.

Abstract

Rabies is a fatal and acute infection of the brain. The virulence factor of this infection is the Rabies virus, which belongs to the Rhabdoviridae family. It is a zoonotic disease that can be transmitted from animals to humans.  The common ways of transferral of Rabies in humans are the transmission of rabies by the bite of a rabid animal and transmission due to saliva and consumption of meat and milk of rabid animals. Some wild animals, e.g., skunks, dogs, raccoons, foxes, and bats, can also transfer rabies in humans, mammals, and other animals. The incubation period of Rabies is at least 2 weeks to a maximum of 6 years, with an average duration of 2 to 3 months. Given its status as a significant zoonotic disease, it is crucial to have an accurate and prompt diagnosis to facilitate early treatment and implement effective measures for prevention and control. This study comprehensively analyzes epidemiology, transmission, etiology, advancements in diagnostics, immunization, therapy methods, and effective prevention and control techniques. The main objective of this study is to brief the threat of rabies and its management along with providing some brief knowledge related to rabies. The web sources (e.g., Google Scholar, Pubmed) were used to collect data regarding Rabies and briefly explained. As a result, it is clear that rabies is a big threat to the whole world so management strategies are required to target and overcome this threat. This study concludes that the Rabies virus can be managed by following the preventive and managemental strategies.

Abstract

LBW suffer from many problems, including hypothermia, respiratory distress syndrome, intracranial hemorrhage, hyperbilirubinemia, and hypoglycemia because the sucking reflex is weak, resulting in insufficient intake. This weakness in sucking is related to the maturity of the baby's nerve structure and the strength of the mouth muscles. Oral motor skills are one of the most important skills a baby has. The aim of this research is to determine the effect of giving oral stimulation on increasing the sucking reflex and increasing the weight of LBW babies. This research uses a type of quantitative research that uses a pre-test and post-test one group design (Notoatmodjo, 2018), with a Quasi-Experimental design without a control group that compares the evaluation results before and after treatment of respondents. Data were collected using Sucking Reflex and BB Increase observation sheets. The statistical test used is the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The measurement results showed that after giving oral stimulation there was an increase in the sucking reflex and an increase in BW (P value = 0.000), namely an increase in the Sucking Reflex of the majority in the strong category as many as 30 people (93.7%), and those in the minority in the weak category as many as 2 people (6.3%). Meanwhile, in weight gain, the majority in the category increased by 28 people (87.5%), and the minority in the category did not increase by 4 people (12.5%). Based on the research that has been carried out, it was concluded that there is an effect of giving oral stimulation on the Sucking Reflex and Increase in Body Weight in LBW.

Abstract

Coronary artery disease (CAD) remains a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in developed countries. CAD is a pathological process characterized by the accumulation of atherosclerotic plaques in the epicardial arteries, both obstructive and non-obstructive. This study aims to investigate rare cases of anomalous right coronary artery arising from the left main coronary artery and its clinical implications for coronary artery disease (CAD). The research methodology involved clinical examinations, echocardiography, diagnostic coronary angiography, and computed tomography angiography (CCTA) to obtain a comprehensive understanding of this case. The research findings indicate severe stenosis in the proximal-mid left main coronary artery (LAD) and an anomalous origin of the right coronary artery (RCA) leading to lower-level stenosis. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on the proximal-mid LAD lesion resulted in significant improvement in the patient's condition. The implications of this research underscore the importance of a deep understanding of coronary artery anatomical variations for accurate diagnosis and appropriate management of CAD patients, especially in rare cases like this.
